  • A package of lessons that would cost $400-$999 will receive a 10% discount, resulting in an upfront charge of $360-$899.
  • A package worth $1,000-$2,499 will be eligible for a 15% discount, with a total cost of $850-$2124.
  • Packages of $2,500+ will receive a 20% discount and cost $2,000 and up.

Hi Everybody,
My name is Marie, and I may be the ideal tutor for you!
I recently graduated from Columbia University with a Master's degree in Clinical Psychology (I majored in general psychology as an undergraduate student at Vassar College), and I am currently working as a tutor for the Academic Advantage. As part of my work for the Academic Advantage, I tutor students in Math (pre-Algebra, Algebra, Geometry, and general Math), and also in Language Arts (including English, reading, vocabulary and writing).

Besides tutoring, I also have a lot of work experience as a substitute teacher and teaching assistant in various classrooms. I have experience with students of all ages, including extensive experience with individuals who have special needs.

In general, I favor a "hands-on" approach to teaching that involves a lot of interaction between the tutor and student, and concrete experiences in addition to worksheets. However, my specific methods vary according to the subject being taught and the learning style of the student.

I look forward to hearing from you!

  I may be the ideal tutor for your elementary school child! I have a Master's degree in psychology with an emphasis on child development; I have taken multiple elementary education courses, and I have about 7 years of experience with school age children, much of which has been in an educational setting. In addition, this past school year, I have tutored several elementary school students, and significantly improved their grades and test scores. I prefer a hands-on approach to tutoring with this age group, although will occasionally use worksheets in addition to more engaging activities. I look forward to hearing from you, and possibly providing tutoring services to your children.
